OUR OWN DOING

#ENTANGLED INTO #SLAVERY

Darkness won't allow the light in our lives,
they can't live together like bees in hives,
the light exposes the deeds of darkness,
and the conscience can't abide with all its starkness.

Every choice we make brings us at a crossroad,
many paths are hidden behind an unwritten code,
do we know what leads to darkness or light,
do we know where to go in the depths of our plight.

What do we know about freedom and slavery,
what do we know about life and death,
do we know that slavery is not about a master,
but all about darkness that requires an answer.

Slowly but surely we become accustomed,
trained and blinded and slowly conditioned,
we become entangled and used as prey,
drawn into slavery to suffer every day.
